I thought they were there, but there are not. I installed MWB on a basic Workbench 2.1.
I just discovered datatypes were introduced from Workbench 3.0 with Multiview.
Workbench 2 & 1.3 have Amigaguide (Multiview without datatype = hypertext only), available as Commodore PD, not from original WB disks.

I don't know if multiview and datatypes are retro-compatible with WB 2.0/2.1. I'll try later, however I'm enough sure years ago I installed marble_classic pattern on my old A500+ with Hard Drive and WB 2. I didn't know MWB 2 required at least WB 3.
